The fact that everything is written here, rather than spoken means that I have time to organize my thoughts and be more prudent. Hence, I won't say that I am the "same" here as in real life.
However, I don't feel like I have anything to lose in here, so I am more honest. People feel as if they have nothing to lose in several cases:
1) False sense of security
2) Nothing was given to them TO lose.
3) No risk of losing what you already had.
The only risk I see is that I might reveal something here that would risk what I already have. If I were to lose this place, I would be able to move on. I like it, but I wouldn't censor myself here for fear of losing something (reputation, bannation, etc.)
